AIRASIA (5099)
12/12/2013
RM2.36
BUY on weakness
RM3.24
Airasia’s share price shed approximately 21% since recent high in Mid October after group posted its 3rd quarter results which came in mixed that showed higher revenue but weaker yield (lower fare due to competition) and lower contributions from its Thai and Indonesia associates. We however saw some positive development whereby its ancillary income charges improved and the reduction of operation cost (due to introduction of self check-in services). Moving forward, we expect performance to improve as Q4 is seasonally their strongest quarter because of the holidays towards year end. 2014 would also be in Airasia’s favour as the country will be promoting Visit Malaysia year 2014 on a global basis; also, the opening of KLIA2, where Airasia will be the main tenant, will further boost passenger traffic and improve capacity of the group. Airasia is currently trading at undemanding PE of 7.27x for FY15 vs average of 10x. Technical indicators remained in the negative territory with MACD turning down; RSI however is only at 32%. Given the current situation we believe a BUY on weakness call is sufficient as the counter is also a possible candidate for the year end window dressing. TP RM3.24 based on 10x PE for FY15.

RM11.33
MAYBANK (RM10.08) – Maybank’s fundamentals continue to improve especially for its Indonesian and Investment bank business. The bank’s move to regionalize CFS (a major unit that houses its consumer, SME and business banking operations within the region) will also synergize their organic growth in the regions altogether. This allows the group to transfer expertise to wherever needed, synchronize marketing plans and product development as well as improve efficiency for the group. Moving into 2014, the group expects to see lower loan growth due to the softening of property sales but will definitely benefit from the Economic Transformation Program (ETP) as well as the government’s efforts to strengthening the SME segment in the country as part of the 12 (NKEA) National key Economic Areas. Valuations deemed attractive as it trades at 12.2x FY15 PE vs their 7 year average of 16.5x.  Dividend payout marginally higher than its peers at 5.5% est. Technical indicators showed a turnaround in share price as it broke above its 16 weeks downtrend a few days back. Weekly chart is forming a double bottom with a potential 95 cents upside from RM10.38. Given its solid fundamentals and its well supported share price we believe that this is a good opportunity to accumulate the stock. TP of RM11.33 based on technical breakout calculation.
